Thanks.
So, if I understand correctly, StandardAnalyzer wont work for the following
below as it strips out the special characters and does search only on
searchText ( in this case).
queryText = *&&searchText*
If we want to do a search like "*&&**" then we need to use
WhiteSpaceAnalyzer. Please let me know if my understanding is correct.
Also, I am not sure as the following is mentioned in the lucene docs? Is the
below not for StandardAnalyzer then? It is not mentioned that it wont work
for StandardAnalyzer.
/*
Escaping Special Characters
Lucene supports escaping special characters that are part of the query
syntax. The current list special characters are
+ - && || ! ( ) { } [ ] ^ " ~ * ? : \ /
To escape these character use the \ before the character. For example to
search for (1+1):2 use the query:
\(1\+1\)\:2
*/
Thanks,
Sai.
